That scene brought me the same childhood joy that seeing food magically appear in the replicator gave me. Until lower decks it was the best nutrek show out of all of them

And if the reason they’re sitting there is cause you got caught smoking, there’s a good chance you’re gonna have to smoke five hundred cigarettes in one sitting.

Sorry - us 80s kids came home every day to an empty house cause both parents worked.

Isn't there a King of the Hill episode that is literally about both of these things?

There's one where Hank makes Bobby smoke a whole carton as punishment. There's another where Peggy and Hank start smoking again and have to quit, but it's been so long, that might actually be the same episode.

They were making cigarettes with their cigarette creditcard machine. Shick-shuck, cigarette pops out.

I was born in the early 80s and I have no idea what you're talking about XD

[-] pedrobear@altgag.net 4 points 2 weeks ago

Not early enough, probably. I did definitely live that...

I don't recognise it either and I'm a very early millennial. I'm going to assume it's a thing USians think is universal, as is so often the case.

USian born in the early 80's here; no clue what this image is about.

My parents were too busy being wage slaves.

[-] chuckleslord@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

I was born in the 90s and I recognize this image. Though it was the lady who had the daycare doing it, but still
